Software Installation Disclaimer
It is company policy that we do not directly control or access a client’s virus software programs, It is the clients responsibility to ensure that all of your virus protection software directly “excludes” KAS software before any installation or modification can begin.
Any fault analysis or technical support required from KAS staff that is the result of either modification, updates of either new or existing software or hardware, particularly as the result of the addition or updating of new or existing virus protection software, that does not directly exclude interaction or interference with your KAS software may result in a fee for time being charged for such services. Should any technical work or assistance (not explicitly covered under warranty technical support) be requested outside of normal working hours then a weekend/public holiday surcharge will also apply.
It is a company requirement to have the client’s IT department to attend to excluding KAS software from all of their virus protection software. KAS lock software is NOT online and therefore there is zero risk of our software being able to attract any viruses from the internet.
Once this has been attended to and should you still require our technical assistance then please contact us back during working hours. Should you require ‘non-warranty’ technical assistance outside of normal hours then you will be invoiced appropriately invoiced this time.
